We started Lotta56sparks.ca on Lotta’s 107th birthday, November 28, not quite knowing how a blog dedicated to this humanitarian “pioneer” would be received.
Ottawa, 1943.
Since then, over 700 individuals have visited the blog!
Sincere thanks to everyone who has helped spread the word, with a special nod to the Lost Ottawa Facebook group.
Here are the most popular stories of 2016:
